Trepia has a new Wi-Fi instant messanger program for windows that works like Apple's rendezvous enabled iChat instant messanger in that it will allow you to connect to other Wi-Fi users in your immediate vicinity.While programs like ICQ and AIM will show you a static list of friends, Trepia shows you a list of people who are currently in your area -- people who you most likely didn't know before! You can check out their profile and picture and strike up a conversation, knowing that if you actually want to meet them, they are never more than a few minutes away. As public Wi-Fi nodes proliferate this sort of thing is going to become very cool.
I also like Trepia's copy under the download button: "Trepia is free to use and contains no spyware or ads." Amen.
